Is there any ROS sand paper disks better than another? Is there a "best" source to buy these disks? I like to use the sticky back disks.

I'm a hook and loop guy so the Norton 3X stuff does OK for me. I have also used the Klingspor stuff that is made in Germany and they offer it in PSA (http://www.woodworkingshop.com/cgi-bin/BA87FA15/mac/qryitems.mac/itemDisplay?lenSgDsc=25P5%20X%20NO%20HOLE%20ADHESI VE%20BACK%20DISC&qryType=GRPSG&group=DISCS).

In addition to Norton 3X and Klingspor, I've used Mirka and been very satisfied with all three.

I picked up a full compliment of grits of Mirka from Amazon. I don't know what their prices are now, but it was a good deal when I bought it all.... large boxes, like 50 sheets or so.
First time I ever got Mirka and was very impressed.

I use Norton 3X to and it is good.

I also use Mirka and am satisfied with it. I get the best deals from Woodworker Supply (woodworker.com)
